Overall Objectives

Efficient visualization of very large scenes

Being able to handle massive data sets has been a strategic objective for French Computer Science for the last few years. In our research field, this leads us to investigate both the scientific visualization of very large data sets (which helps exploring and understanding the data
provided, for instance, by our scientific partners from other research fields), and the real-time, realistic rendering of large size natural scenes, seeking for the interactive exploration and possible immersion in such scenes as a long term goal. More precisely, our objectives are to
develop:
